URANUS PLUTO SQUARE

We are in the midst of the first of seven squares between Uranus and Pluto in the next three years and it could be a time of profound upheaval and transformation. Uranus is in Aries and Pluto is in Capricorn, and a square between two planets is a stressful, challenging aspect which represents a push for growth and transformation out of limitation. The tension of the square can highlight where we are limited or stuck and forces us to move beyond it, which can be uncomfortable but ultimately promotes growth. 

Uranus in Aries – He is the great awakener, the radical, revolutionary planet who shakes things up in order to create necessary change and prevent stagnation. He is in the direct, youthful and aggressive sign of Aries whose ruler is Mars the warrior! This combination will demand freedom and the right to discover who we are and where we fit into the big picture. Aries is fearless, and the changes are coming fast and furiously, and could even result in downright revolution. Combine that energy with the energy of Pluto and Capricorn and you can see that society will be shaken to the core by this configuration, as will our lives! I don’t think it is a coincidence that Occupy Global has happened during the last couple of years. To give an example of what Uranus in Aries is capable of - the day that the tsunami happened in Japan, 11th March 2011, was the exact day that Uranus entered Aries. Crazy stuff! A very extreme example I know, but I was flabbergasted when I realised that is was the EXACT day of the shift from watery Pisces into fiery, forceful Aries. In fact Both Uranus and Pluto rule disasters, both man-made and natural - oil spills, tsunamis, earthquakes

Pluto in Capricorn - Whichever sign it goes through it has a detoxifying effect – he digs deep and finds the rot, bringing up whatever is wrong or out of balance with whatever sign he is in. Pluto is concerned with power and powerlessness, and represents transformation and the death and rebirth principle. Capricorn represents structure, responsibility, authority and government. Put the two together and what do we get? It could be that societal structures could crumble if they are no longer relevant or serving our needs, destroyed in order for something better to take their place, while powerful organisations could become more transparent are corruption fully revealed. On a personal level we may be forced to drastically transform our lives, breaking down patterns which no longer serve our highest truth and think about how we might better serve ourselves and others. The structure of our lives will have to crumble and be reborn to better reflect who we are.

Put the two together - social and personal structures (Capricorn) may be suddenly (Uranus) destroyed (Pluto). There will be powerful urges (Pluto) for individual and collective freedom (Uranus), and the desire (Aries) to fully realise who we really are. A massive power shift is indicated (Uranus square Pluto) through sudden, unprecedented upheaval, which could even lead to a new social or economic order. This square is likely to change the fabric of our societies to the core and force us to live up to our true potential, stepping into our true power and living our lives with integrity. On a global level this means big trouble for governments, banks, social institutions and large corporations (Pluto in Capricorn) as people rise up and demand the truth (Uranus in Aries). The last time these two planets joined up was during the 60s, when there was a massive amount of change and upheaval, including the Civil Rights Movement.

Some relationships, things and situations may dismantle and decay so that something new forms in its place. There may well be dramatic paradigm shifts, upheavals, profound transformations and remarkable breakdowns and breakthroughs in one or in many areas of life. The energy of this square is so powerful that we may have no control over it, so it is better to go with the flow and not resist - ride the waves of change so to speak. Trust that anything that happens is ultimately for our highest good, even though it may be hard to see at first.

This will be a time when people become more aware of and in touch with their life purpose, as it fits into the big picture. The old way of life will be shaken up, and wherever we are stuck or stale will experience transformation and upheaval, but only for our greatest good, both personally and collectively. Undoubtedly there will be some dramatic changes in the next few years, and with them will come some unexpected surprises that bring great delight. Life may well look very different at the end of this period! 

The Uranus Pluto square will be exact 7 times over the next few years, which is extremely rare, so look out for those particular dates, both for yourself personally and for the world. The energy will build in intensity in the month or so leading up to the square being exact, but the couple of days before they form an exact square it will reach a climax.

So….these are the dates on which the square will be exact.
